How to keep your Brazilian hair nice and shinny

All girls dreams of a perfect hair. We do our best to nurture our natural hair and provide all these valuable nutrients that will allow it to grow strong. However, even with all this effort, most of us cannot achieve that amazing volume which we see in movies.

So what’s the solution? Brazilian wigs and hair extensions!

When we buy such a product, we are quickly amazed by the high quality of Brazilian hair. This particular type of hair is really dense and you can do whatever you wish with it. But still, there is one drawback to it. Unlike natural hair it will start shedding sooner than later.

Luckily for you, we are able to safeguard it for a longer time than originally intended. Interested to learn how? Well then, read this article!

Using shampoo

Shampoo is always a potential hazard although you have to use it. Undoubtedly, it is the best way to clean your own scalp as well as the Brazilian hair. However, most of shampoos use strong chemicals which can further damage your hair extensions. So your best bet is to simply use natural products.

Hair needs to be washed at least once per week and if you’re leading an active lifestyle, even more frequently. Try to avoid using too many different products on your Brazilian hair though. You should especially avoid things that are not necessary and instead only focus on shampoo and conditioner. Whenever you wash it, go from the roots to the ends. Make sure to untangle any tangles and avoid rubbing extensions together.

Using conditioner

Conditioner is perhaps more important for longevity of your Brazilian weave. While shampoo tends to dry it, conditioner will moisturize it. This will allows you to easily style it afterwards.

Styling

When styling your hair make sure that your hair is dry. It is very important to dry your hair with a towel or allow it to dry itself naturally, without interference that is. You should always go for combs with wide teeth. Aggressive moves or too much force may have a negative impact on the hair so try to avoid it as much as possible.

Sleeping with Brazilian hair

When you go to sleep it is normal to twist and turn in bed. This can have a bad impact on hair and cause some damage to it. Best way to prevent it? By wearing a satin cap. Avoid wrapping the hair in any cotton. This material is notorious for absorbing natural oils from your scalp which will cause issues afterwards. Elastic bands also may cause problems as they lead to lots of stress on hair. Prior to sleeping make sure to properly brush the hair and untangle it.

With these actionable tips you will have no trouble maintaining your new Brazilian hair. Just make sure not to do anything you wouldn’t do otherwise.

While these products do require some extra attention, it will pay off tenfold when you walk down the street with your perfect virgin hair.
